Pirates Win, 3-2, at Minnesota
The Pittsburgh Pirates had to overcome a fine performance from Minnesota pitcher Bud Puffer to grab a 3-2 win at Target Field. Puffer allowed 3 runs over 9 innings. Jeremy Kennie earned the save for Pittsburgh, his 9th of the year. The third-place Pirates have won 4 consecutive games.

Xavier Pittman, the 36-year old second baseman , had a direct impact on the outcome. Pittman contributed a run-scoring ground out in the top of the seventh inning to put Pittsburgh up, 3-2.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Pittman.
